UAE cardiologists say this is one of the reasons people in their 30s and 40s should not assume that being active alone protects them from heart problems. “Looking fit is not the same as being free of cardiovascular risk,” said Dr Yogeeswari Vellore Satyanarayanan, specialist cardiology at Medcare Royal Speciality Hospital.
